If you want to write a function to do it, here's an example.
FUNCTION check_valid_zipcode (zipcode IN VARCHAR2
) RETURN NUMBER IS
tempnum number;
my_sqlcode NUMBER;
BEGIN
BEGIN
tempnum := TO_NUMBER(SUBSTR(zipcode,1,5),'9');
RETURN 0;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
my_sqlcode := SQLCODE;
--IF my_sqlcode -01800 AND my_sqlcode -01899 THEN
RETURN -1;
--END IF;
END;
END;

Subject: Re: [KCFusion] Numeric Check in PL/SQL
This doesnt work in a block of code. Here is what I am going for, FN_ISNUMERIC is a
function I am working in now having not found a standard Numeric check type
function.So if you know of something a little easier to work with I would greatly
appreciate it
BEGIN
SELECT SF_INTRANSIT(TRIM(V_DEST), TRIM(V_ORIG), TRIM(V_SHIPPER),
TRIM(V_TRACKNUMBER), TRIM(V_TICKETNUM), TRIM(V_CONTACT))
AS V_SYSTEM_RESULT
FROM DUAL;
IF FN_ISNUMERIC(LEFT(V_SYSTEM_RESULT, 2)) THEN
-- IF NUMERIC THEN THERE IS AN ERROR CODE
V_RETURN := V_SYSTEM_RESULT;
GOTO RETURN_VALUE;
ELSE
-- GOOD TO GO AND GOT A SYSTEM BACK
V_RETURN := 'Finally!'
EXCEPTION
END;

LIKE
Any single character within the specified range ([a-f]) or set ([abcdef]).
WHERE foo LIKE '[abcdefghijklf]'
Determines whether or not a given character string matches a specified
pattern. A pattern can include regular characters and wildcard characters.
During pattern matching, regular characters must exactly match the
characters specified in the character string; wildcard characters, however,
can be matched with arbitrary fragments of the character string. Using
wildcard characters makes the LIKE operator more flexible than using the =
and != string comparison operators. If any of the arguments are not of
character string data type, Microsoft® SQL ServerT converts them to
character string data type, if possible.
Syntax
match_expression [NOT] LIKE pattern [ESCAPE escape_character]
Arguments
match_expression
Is any valid SQL Server expression of character string data type.
pattern
Is the pattern to search for in match_expression, and can include these
valid SQL Server wildcard characters.

Not sure if it will work within Oracle

Subject: [KCFusion] Numeric Check in PL/SQL
Does anyone know of a function using PL/SQL that checks the value of a
variable to see if it contains all numbers or number and alpha. I originally
planned on doing this in CF with the IsNumeric check but just got shot down
to do it the oracle Function Im writing.
Thanks,
Misty
